MEMBER NEEDS SURVEY TO LAUNCH FOR ALL MEMBERS IN FALL
Watch your inbox for a TPI member needs survey coming this fall. This short survey will collect information about your needs and preferences concerning various TPI functions, including events, member benefits, and publications, as well as information about your business such as labor issues and your budget for seeds, supplies, and equipment. This information will remain anonymous and will be used in aggregate by TPI staff members to improve your member experience as we plan for the coming years.
TPI HONORS AND AWARDS PROGRAM
Do you know a deserving individual who should be recognized for their contributions to the industry? If so, please consider nominating them for recognition through the TPI Awards Program.
